AMD dual-core 1xx Opterons &#39;to go Socket 939&#39;

The Register is reporting that AMD's dual-core 1xx Opterons will utilize socket 939.

Dual-core Opteron 165, 170 and 175 processors are expected to ship in Q3 after being formally introduced later this quarter. They will use Socket 939 to give server and workstation vendors access to cheaper motherboards and less expensive unbuffered memory modules in place of the ECC DIMMs used in Socket 940 mobos.
